Östersunds FK will not sign an additional striker before the transfer window closes overnight to Thursday.

However, the club's budget has been adjusted, affecting the space for new players.

Sportchef Stefan Lundin stated that if someone else were to be brought in, another player would have to leave, which is not currently the case. He mentioned there have been some loan inquiries but none deemed suitable.
